To explore the world is to learn and experience something you will never get at home or in a classroom. A great way to enrich your adventures is to get close with nature and wildlife in their own habitat in a completely different place in the world, so let’s safari! But where to start when booking a safari? First, research different safari regions. Check out different tour companies and their ratings, how long their tours are, what time of year is best for each region, and maybe consider a place that you may want to enjoy sightseeing before and after the tour. After you pick a destination, you can decide how to plan a trip to Africa by finding good flights and accommodation through various booking applications. Now that you have planned your own African safari trip, you're one step closer to having an unforgettable adventure.

To find the best safari gear, check out the stores that carry outdoor and athletic gear. Go online and get ratings and advice from people who have gone on safaris to determine what they recommend. For example, what is the typical African safari clothing for men and women? What is good for hot climates but keeps you cool and away from too much contact with the sun. Another great idea would be to find out what seasoned safari-goers consider safari essentials. A massive supply of mosquito spray, high factor sun lotion? Probably, but there may be something you haven’t even thought of that they could advise about that could be extremely crucial to enjoying your trip. 

Now that you have sorted out the where and the what to bring, the fun part of researching what you will see on a safari can begin. The best place to start would be to find an African safari animals list to find out exactly what you might meet on your tour. It would also be wise to know a little about the great migration animals of Africa. Find out when and where they move across different locations to make sure you get to see this spectacular site in person.
